anathemas anathema: [act of] curse, condemnation, disapproval

I have been disconnected for a long time because of a small device that adapts European cables to British networks. I am back to London and I don’t find it more changed than other times when I have come back after being abroad for shorter periods than this time.

All is explained in www.indymedia.org.uk: The police have confiscated the server of imc bristol and a personal computer, in the house of a volunteer of imc. All with a search warrant. The volunteer was arrested during the raid and released.

I have found another way of uploading pictures and linking them here. This is a test to see if it works. The first I have uploaded was this one, of a plant called comfrey. You crush the leaves and the resulting stuff is a liquid kind of oil. You put it on the limb that has just been plastered or bandaged, and the pain goes away.

One can say this is nonsense but when I had the plaster removed from my arm, it would hurt as it if couldn’t hurt more; I would put this the ointment on, and off the pain went.

The press release has gone out to a number of lists plus the site; a translation into Spanish is here, http://anatemas.noblogs.org/mas-bristol/.

I found this piece appeared in this blog while eating some fair trade chocolate (my translation): “the Mondragon group announces in its Website that it will sue whoever slander to him on the internet”.

Today I answer the commentary published in a previous post (in Spanish – here is the English version).

Some people are already signing up to refuse having an ID card: http://www.pledgebank.com/refuse.

A. says things go on as usual in London, specially for people who can’t
afford to use the underground. Accidents do happen, and you can be
knocked down by any car in the traffic.

This is a summary of an email that John Bunzl, Trustee from International Simultaneous Policy Organisation, simpol, sent to various lists
============
The very name “Live 8” used for the rock concerts on 2nd July indicates a focus on just eight politicians. It implies that just eight people could change the world and make poverty history.

Tableturners are a group of fellow Pilgrims from different Christian traditions. They utterly reject the blind worship of the false god of rampant free market capitalism and its religious apologists who propagate the so-called ‘prosperity gospel’ with its misguided belief that the pursuit of wealth sits easily with the Christian way. For Tableturners, the Gospel of Jesus Christ very clearly states the exact opposite.
